@webmal comparison shot of (from L to R) 14oz, 16oz, 17oz and 18oz. Hope this helps.

Hey everyone! New member here, and I recently picked up my first pair of Iron Hearts. If I'm looking to post a fit check and get opinions, where is the appropriate place? General? Under the specific pair? Thanks.

[Giles]

In the specific model thread is as good a place as any. Thanks for asking and welcome....

[Kdub780]

@Giles sounds good. Thank you sir.

how do you determine if the top button on a shirt is a snap or a regular button?

[Giles]

We dont. Haraki does. I personally never bothered asking him.....

We all love over engineered stuff and IH always delivers. How about the 6,5oz tees? I have a bunch of 7,5oz tees which are great and i dig those! But i’m looking for a plain tee but with the same feel. I know they have a different fit and that’s fine for me. I also have some whitesville tees and for me those are to thin. Are the IH heavier? More dense? Also have some freenote 9oz tees and those feel like garbage compared to the IH 7,5oz. Already thanks peeps!

@Heavy_blue I absolutely love my IH 6.5oz tees. They get super soft after a few washed and keep their shape perfectly. I want to try a 7.5 but haven’t yet. Also, warehouse slub cotton tees are perfect too. Incredible texture to the fabric.

@Heavy_blue The Flat Head 9oz THC T Shirts are amazing, grabbed two recently and will probably get another before the summer is over.

42 (XL) fits just slightly larger than an IH 7.5oz Medium, with much more fitted sleeves.

Hello and Happy Easter everyone.
Ive just managed to snag this pair of green trousers from ebay. They’re labelled as Iron Heart, but I have my doubts…(They were 15 quid!) I cant seem to find anything similar in the forum (patch pockets on the front and back and a very loose looking fit) Any help in identifying them would be hugely appreciated.

Hi @NorvilleRogers
They look like the IH 709, Cotton Serge Baker Pants.

Have or do any of you guys have one of the “Big Lebowski” sweaters from Pendleton? If you do, I would love your thoughts on fit, finish, etc…

[Matt]

@goosehd my impression is that the quality of Pendleton in general has declined but it’s a cool sweater and it, like, could really tie your outfit together. RRL makes some nice stuff in that style as well.

I got a Pendleton Wool CPO a few years ago. It was pretty nice. But I had to exchange it. When I did, I went to the Denver Pendleton shop and they had the Lebowski sweater. I thought it seemed “ok” quality wise. Wasn’t blown away. Tried one on of course. But wasn’t moved by it either.

[Matt]

@goosehd are you just looking for a patterned cardigan or are you looking for The Dude specifically?

@Matt really one of those rabbit hole questions. It started with one of those emails that I routinely get from various retailers. Around Christmas I received one from Pendleton stating that they were reissuing the Big Lebowski sweater and it had not previously crossed my mind. Like the design and the look…

Then everyone starts showing their Dehen shawl sweaters and my issue of finding Dehen’s wool extremely scratchy/itchy made me start thinking about the Pendleton again.

Thanks for the suggestion of RRL but the patterned ones all have a big ass RRL somewhere embroidered into the pattern. Loses points for me.

Don’t think that I’ll buy anything, but I’m always looking to see what’s out there.

[Tago Mago]

@goosehd can I interest you in a new pair of footwear? https://dudejellies.com/ would complete the outfit

[goosehd]

@Tago-Mago Maybe next time…

[goosehd]

I do like the looks of this one but as mentioned, the back kills it:

Edit: …and it would cut into my IH spring/summer funds. Now if @Alex and @Giles would finally listen to me and put out some crappy, unwearable clothing once in a while, I might be able to afford it.
